Hi all - I have several pieces on family history committed to a variety of
publications over the next year or so. I suppose it would be good to know
how you want to curate this, length, audience etc?
All best, Tanya

Hi Arnon,
Depending on when it's needed, I could do something on a framework for
placing one's own genealogy within a larger socio-cultural historical
context. I won't be able to get to it until probably 2016, though.

Hiya,
Cheers! Well, I need to write more about this. I have a piece published
on the information sharing part - will track down and send to you.
Best wishes,
Crystal

That sounds extremely relevant to what I'm currently doing, so if you
have anything to share about it - I'd love to read. And of course it sounds
very relevant to the maybe-happening SI ;-)

Hi Arnon,
It's really a framework for understanding how hobbyists process
information - including how they share, find, etc. information.
Genealogists have particular traits that make them effective at quid pro
quo sharing, etc. All in the context of serious leisure - that is, leisure
that is really more work-like in terms of time and effort than a casual
hobby one dabbles in.
Best wishes,
Crystal

Crystal, that sounds very interesting - could you please elaborate on
this framework? Together with a colleague of mine we've started studying
how genealogists organize their gathered information, but for many reasons
we changed the focus of this study and decided to keep the information
organization topic for our next study. Together with a graduate student of
mine we're examining kids' information organization while doing a
genealogy
project for school.

Hi Arnon,
My research on genealogy took place a few years ago, but I have been
working on a framework since, which explores how hobbyists such as
genealogists handle information. I'd be very happy to contribute a piece
on this if you think it would be useful!
Best wishes,
Crystal

Hello, dear all, it's been a long time since we last corresponding.
I was suggested to guest-edit a special issue of the Journal of
Multidisciplinary Research (JMR, http://www.jmrpublication.org) on
Genealogy. The SI will present genealogy-related articles from various
disciplines.
As I'm still thinking about this exciting opportunity, I'm
wondering: Would you consider submitting a paper to this SI?
Yours,
Arnon
